[ 02.25.2010 ] With another snow storm hitting NYC, between making pernil and shoveling snow I was able to dig up some old Mike Wright footage from 2003, you might notice a lot of toe drags but with size 13 feet you can't really blame him.  [ 02.18.2010 ] RB Umali uploaded a tribute video he made for Harold Hunter. Harold RIP. (Read More)  [ 02.09.2010 ] The Maloof Cup will be coming to NYC on June 5-6, 2010. The resulting street course will be donated to the city as a permanent skate park in Flushing Meadow Park. (Read More) Vans will be releasing an Andy Kessler x Vans Syndicate collaboration which will include the Old Skool "S" and the SK8-Hi "S" models. Both were made with performance "Outlast materials" to maximize protection and ventilation. Constructed of leather and suede, these were meant to be skated. So pick up a pair two and pay homage to a NYC OG. (Read More) Speaking of collaborations, for me there can never be enough Wu-Tang skateboard collabos.. again and again! Homage skateshop is holding a contest which could get you access to their private indoor skatepark. With a blizzard threatening to touch down tomorrow, you might look into it.  [ 02.09.2010 ] There's a new video in the works coming out of Long Island by Chris Carbaugh featuring our homie Bobby Izzo called "Spring Ahead Fall Behind", if the promo is any indication, it should be worth watching. (Read More) 48 blocks dropped a new interview with Quim Cardona, in it he mentions working on a show with HBO, How To Make It In America. Also sighted in this show are Tyshawn Lyons (of QuarterSnacks fame) and Anthony Cochrane (of Metrospective/OfficialNewYork but now fully grown). Now I might actually have to get HBO just to watch this one episode! (Read More) The Chrome Ball Incident posted a little walk down memory lane through Rodney Torres' skateboard career. QuarterSnacks premiered Justin White's latest piece of video gold, Absurd Hawaii. Nick Sassa and James Reres are both sick skaters, and an even deadlier combo. Their video "DOWNWOPP" (LI NY) is a finalist in the Berrics YOUnited Nations contest. Show your support by watching the video and giving them your vote on the Berrics.  [ 02.08.2010 ] People have been asking me to post more content for ages, but receiving the honor of multiple listings in QuarterSnacks' NYC top 100 of the decade list, and watching Sho Ma's tribute video all week has left me both nostalgic and motivated. But with no time and no camera, what can you do? Luckily when you run a skateboard company, although short lived, you stock a bit of unused footage. So I'll be posting old footage that never made it onto the website for some reason or another. Reasons vary from toe drags, tictacs and overall sketchy landings, to shitty camera work or not enough light, saving it for videos that never came out or going to videos that you may have never seen, and then there's the lost tapes or just plain forgotten footage, but you get the idea. Some of the footage might be a decade old, some of it might be far from perfect, but when you're skateboarding, it doesn't matter. If this website were a DVD, you could consider this the bonus section, so enjoy.. I'll post more as I find it.
